Hey everyone, here's a small update to address some issues brought up from the GOG side of things. Your in-game profile is now decoupled from launchers and can be freely changed however you see fit using the new config -> profile button on the main menu. If launching for the first time with a launcher running, the game will still pull your name and avatar image from there. A reset button in the new profile menu will let you automatically reset it to the launchers account name, or local defaults if you're not running a launcher. Your avatar image is now cached to User -> Cache -> ProfileImage.png. You can update this image to be whatever you want, and it'll show up on the menu the next time you launch the game. If you run without a launcher, a default image will be cached. Finally, the multiplayer name text input has been moved to the new profile menu and like with your local name, can also be reset! We're going to be expanding the new menu with more functionality in the future for 1.4. We've kept the scope of it for this update fairly limited to maintain stability while we begin work on the new update.
Changelog
Options
- Added config -> profile to the main menu. This opens an overlay menu where you can configure your profile.
- Moved multiplayer name input field to the new config -> profile overlay.
Engine
- The profile name is now a preference entry, which is stored in User/Config/ini/preferences.ini, and is only set from Steam / Galaxy when a profile name isn't available.
- The profile image is now loaded from User/Cache/ProfileImage.png. This image file will be written to using a Steam / Galaxy / default profile image if not present.
- Fixed issues with processing GOG Galaxy leaderboard entries if the requested entries do not exist
- Fixed all preference options, with exception to first startup, not being saved or loaded
User Interface
- Tips mentioning the Game -> Assist menu now correctly mention the Game -> Access menu.

Physics
BallisticNG recreates the physics of a time long gone. Playing the game is all about getting into the zone and becoming one with the ship, practicing every nook and cranny of every track until you can do it with your eyes closed. Feeling the speed isn't about what the HUD tells you, but how the environment swooshes past you and timing the right maneuvers at the right time to keep the flow going. If you're looking for a quick game, lower speed classes provide you with a more laid back experience. You can even disable weapons if you want a good clean race.Visuals
The game is built as if it were running on real 90s hardware. Low poly ships and environments create simple yet visually rich scenes that can run on most hardware. Retro 3D options are available to emulate hardware limitations from the 90s, modern effects are also available so you can make the game look old, new or anywhere in-between.VR Support
BallisticNG has beta VR support with no compromises on game functionality. All modes, tracks, ships, online and mod content are supported! Tweak the game with the VR options to get the most comfort out of your experience.Cockpit Mode
Each ship has a unique cockpit which reflects the design you see on the exterior. When in cockpit mode the game processes the audio to make it sound authentic, complete with the sound of rain splashing on the canopy and displays flickering as you take damage from weapons, everything you need to get cosy in your high speed future racer.- OS: 64-bit distroMemory: 2 GB RAMStorage: 3 GB available spaceAdditional Notes: Requires OpenGL 3.2+.
